What is Palliative Care : an Integrated Approach about?

This evidence-based text brings together the theory and practice of palliative care. It examines at all aspects of palliative care i.e. psycho social, spiritual and physical in a highly practical way. The evidence base for cancer care has been developed within the Hospice Movement over the past 50 years and, in the main, it transfers across to patients dying of diseases other than cancer. The book addresses the palliative needs of any patient with any disease in any care setting, which gives it a generic approach. This is in line with current government directives. Contributions to care and treatment are considered in a multidisciplinary and complementary way.Content: Chapter 1 Historical and Cultural Perspectives on the Evolution of Palliative Care (pages 1–20): Chapter 2 Facing Progressive Disease and Death (pages 21–36): Chapter 3 Communication Skills (pages 37–58): Chapter 4 Self?Awareness and Self?Care (pages 59–72): Chapter 5 The Sick Role and Partnership Working (pages 73–84): Chapter 6 Hope and Spirituality (pages 85–105): Chapter 7 Finding Resilience Together (pages 106–115): Chapter 8 Living with Dying (pages 116–129): Chapter 9 Bereavement (pages 130–149): Chapter 10 Pai
